Google's services are the safest place to store your sensitive data.
-Eric Schmidt
God himself could not sink this ship!

When asked during an interview for CNBC's recent "Inside the Mind of Google" special about whether users should be sharing information with Google as if it were a "trusted friend," Schmidt responded,
"If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place."
The attitude, people here should do their due diligence and look at who Mr Schmidt hangs out with, that will answer all your questions.
Security failures, obvious complicit interactions with the NSA and other agencies, buggy as crap even though they design the hardware and write the code, something only a fanboi could love.
By definition "new tech" can not be lagging, and no I just use gmail's "Inbox" although I own a domain name and could easily set up my own server why bother?
I guess a simpler way to say it is "What does Yahoo offer anyone they can't get somewhere else", and better at that.
That when a site goes down and someone else gains control of the domain, or sells its self as the new site it may just be the MPAA, or NSA, or FBI fronting?
I've said this before, the corps that work with the government on spying get favored status, and quite a few of them collaborate with the government to facilitate NSA espionage and other "things". I'm certain Apple, Microsoft and Google do the same.
This isn't a democracy or a republic, it's an oligarchy and a borderline fascist one at that.
Or the doctor about to perform surgery on you, or the pilot about to fly 300 people across the ocean, or your SO in a 3 way with a couple of bisexual, intravenous drug using Haitians.
Facebook has immediate access to your phone number details, like name, address etc?
FB on your phone or registered FB, the instant you put that number in there they have all the details.
As I stated previously it's become a ubiquitous login as well, allowing FB all of that 3rd party data, I wonder when people will become uncomfortable with this level of access, with the psych profile built off of their data and actions. I don't think most people get it.
Kind of sad that most people I talk to say they can't quit Facebook or they would lose touch with their friends and/or family.
Simply hand the law enforcement officer your mobile phone.
*forehead slap* how stupid can you be, officer walks back to his car plugs in Apple approved reading device and copies phone content, contacts etc, oh yes your "encryption" you trust a company that let "goto fail" slip through...
Idiots. Now your "phone" is your wallet, your drivers license, your social life and you are completely owned, and dissected by the corporations in a way the often feared "666" tattoo or "chip implant" could never have done.
To some degree, I think it will be more like things we see in William Gibson's novels (Mona Lisa Overdrive in particular) where corporations wage wars against each other. Though not too many civilian causalities.
A full on drone base ont heborder. Grey Eagle
Maximum speed: 150 knots (170 mph; 280 km/h)
Endurance: 30 hours
Service ceiling: 29,000 ft (8,840 m) Shadow UAS
Maximum speed: 127 mph; 204 km/h (110 kn)
Cruising speed: 81 mph; 130 km/h (70 kn)
Range: 68 mi (59 nmi; 109 km)
Endurance: 6 h/ 9 h Increased Endurance
Service ceiling: 15,000 ft (4,572 m) ELOS (Electronic Line Of Sight)
Outside of the US drones are indeed making headway way into general airspace. The GAO says Japan, Australia, United Kingdom, and Canada also allow more commercial UAS operations than the United States.
Every other country has a drone system and regulation set up and working but the US, we are behind in education, behind in Internet connectivity, behind in just about everything because this country is run by fucking morons and greedy little termites.
Debatable, the most likely scenario is one between those listed, for example I type without thought of spelling any longer, because the spell checker underlines misspelled words for me. So over time I've gotten worse at typing, and even my grammar (atrocious already) has gotten worse because of my reliance on software.
This is one tiny example of what I think will happen, we will be empowered to some degree, but we will also lose something in the process.

Those are all corporate, and MIC stands for Military Industrial Complex, of which all the categories you mentioned are subsets.
The people are something to be fed of off, we are cattle to them and for the record, here's Eisenhower warning us.

So their business model is people that don't adapt well to new tech, sounds shaky.
Additionally, Yahoo Answers is one of the worst places to get information IME.
If you're using FB on a phone they do, if your friends or someone related to you has it in their contacts, etc.
If you give it to them...
Why does Yahoo still exist?
Or the doctor about to perform surgery on you, or the pilot about to fly 300 people across the ocean, or your SO in a 3 way with a couple of bisexual, intravenous drug using Haitians.
Yeah i would have posted a statement that stupid as AC too.

Now your GF can see the "details" in the nude selfies you send her.
16k or GTFO.
Just shows what a POS Obama is as well, coming out and speaking as though he was concerned by surveillance, only to have this try to slip by.
Panderer in Chief.
long enough to know that today's really shiny new toy is tomorrow's discarded detritus which didn't really improve my life any
This cycle is more about sales and marketing than anything else IMO.
It's time to go Tyler Durden.

Bingo, I'm glad to see others can poke through the propaganda.

They are already here.
No wonder you post anonymous.

Border operations? I wonder what else.
The US government can't get shit done any more:

Forced to sell, new real estate boom in LA, guess who benefits.
